    We’ve worked with Barnardo’s Young Carers team for a couple of years, and will be doing more with them in the future. The responsibilities of caring for others mean they are likely to often miss out on opportunities that other children have to play, learn and be young. Because of financial pressures on their families, and even more so in today’s economic climate, young carers often go without Christmas presents, and even Easter Eggs too. So that’s where we have stepped in over recent years! We’re big believers that no child should wake up on Christmas morning without a present, so we try to make sure that everyone that the Barnardo’s team look after, has a bag of presents, personally bought with them in mind.

    Over the last few years, we’ve continued to work with various charities to provide a range of support. You can see more of the things we’ve done here.

  • The environmental footprint of businesses and the collective action that we all take to counter it is rightly becoming increasingly important. At Nash & Co Solicitors, we’ve been putting a lot of effort into our environmental action plan, and doing what we can to reduce our impact on the environment.

    We live in Plymouth – Britain’s Ocean City. This is the home of the Ocean Conservation Trust, the National Marine Aquarium and Britain’s first National Marine Park. The OCT (alongside the NMA), is one of five partners in a large-scale conservation project called ReMEDIES (Reducing and Mitigating Erosion and Disturbance Impacts affecting the Seabed). The project sees 5 Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) safeguarded for future generations. We’re helping to fund the work that the OCT are doing in restoring a seagrass meadow just off of Jennycliff, within the Plymouth National Marine Park. We want to help wherever we can, and over the next few years, will be working with the OCT and NMA to make more of an impact as a firm, encouraging lawyers and our staff to take part in beach (and land) cleans, and getting involved directly with the seagrass project itself.

    In addition to this, we are currently recognised as one of the main corporate partners of Whale and Dolphin Conservation – one of the biggest charities looking after sea mammals, anywhere in the world. We’re delighted to be able to support the work done by the incredible people at Whale and Dolphin Conservation. They are on a mission to create a world where every whale and dolphin is safe and free. As part of this, they are working to create safer seas from the threats of pollution, vessel collisions, and accidental entanglement in fishing gear, and to stop cruelty from deliberate harm in captivity.

    We’ve also been making a difference to Beaumont Park, in which of our office is based. Since 2021, we’ve been doing a lot of work in the park alongside a number of key partners. Starting with the fantastic Veterans Outdoors, we’ve built a wildlife pond, bird and bat boxes, we’ve planted trees, established a wildlife and educational area of the park, built a number of bug houses and replaced the rotting climbing rose trellises. With the help of YGS Landscapes, and the veterans again, we’ve fitted out the wildlife area with hedgehog houses. And finally, with the help of Pollenize CIC, we’ve planted a number of wildflower areas in the park.

    Over the last couple of years, we’ve built a really strong relationship with Holy Cross Roman Catholic Primary School, which is directly opposite our office. We’ve been able to get the school involved in the environmental work that we’re doing in the park, encouraging the children to get involved with sewing the wildflower seeds, and filling the bug houses.

    We’re doing what we can in and around our own offices, as well. We’re working with a fantastic local wildlife gardener to rewild our own grounds. We’re planting new trees, new pollinator friendly plants and allowing the grass to grow longer with weeds in it that bees and other pollinators like.

    In the office, we’re reducing our paper usage and only using FSC accredited paper (sourced from sustainable stocks). We print double sided and in black and white, to cut the amount of paper and toner used. Where possible, we are emailing documents to clients rather than sending them in the post. We’ve cut out the use of all single use plastics and single use cups. We ask staff to turn off lights when they’re not using their room, and to ensure that computers and monitors are turned off at night.
